Beschreibung
This book is a tool for serious learners who wish to gauge their knowledge base and for those who want to deepen their understanding of psychopathology and the mechanisms of psychopharmacologic and psychotherapeutic action. It will also give readers a vast “snapshot” of many domains within the psychiatric field, extending from the DSM to the mental status exam, from traditional antidepressants to novel medications, from genetics to neuromodulation, and from psychoanalysis to drug-assisted psychotherapies. The format is user-friendly, and detailed explanations are provided on many of the covered topics, helping readers better assimilate the information.
The content is outlined entirely in question-and-answer format. Questions are presented in interesting and engaging ways, inviting deeper exploration and serving as a tool for classroom teaching. A strong emphasis is placed on mechanistic explanations relating to psychopharmacological effects, underpinnings of substances of abuse and addiction, and neurophenomenology of psychiatric illness.
The target audience of Absolute Psychiatry Review is medical students with an interest in psychiatry, psychiatry residents, practicing psychiatrists (particularly those in educational or academic settings), and practitioners within allied disciplines who wish to expand their knowledge base of the field.
